You have to go through the wheel wells.....take out the black screws that hold the black inner fenders and stick your hand in to reach the headlights. It's kind of a pain, but not that time consuming. Check your owners manual for more details.

Take your time and do it slowly... those plastic screws are expensive (for plastic at least )

you could always take the bumper off, but just the top part. I found this to be the easiest to access the bulbs.

Take the clips in front of the radiator that hold the bumper and 2 screws one on each side by the end of the bumper. Pull bumper forward until it clears the metal bar that holds the lights, then let it seat on the ground and do what you need to do. Remember everything else is going to be attach to the bumper from fender linner to bottom shield. This works on 99's I'm sure it does on 2003 and above including type S.

I forgot something. Remember next to the screws on the side there is a clip or better yet the bumper clips to a something can't remember, but make sure the bumper is not cliped before you pull it forward.
